Laurie Beth Schuh passed away unexpectedly at the age of 68 on Sept. 12, 2025. She was born on Nov. 9, 1956.
Laurie was the loving spouse of Amy Meese of Burlington and the rescue mom to Alfie, Bear, Jackson and Rio. Her parents John “Jack” Schuh and Mary Ann (Springborn) Schuh preceded her in death. Laurie is further survived by many treasured family members and friends.
Laurie was artistic soul, a loyal supporter of animal and environmental rights and always had time for a friend in need. She was an art teacher in the Milwaukee Public School District for several years and often remarked how much she loved her job and the kids she was able to mentor and teach. Even when faced with a work injury that necessitated an early retirement, she remained positive. She enjoyed spending time in Door County, her beloved sanctuary, as well as her home in Burlington. Laurie lived life to the fullest and was happiest when surrounded by her beloved family and friends.
A celebration of Laurie’s life will be scheduled for later.
In lieu of flowers, please feel free to make a charitable donation to your favorite animal rescue or environmental organization.
